La Bene Vita

Tuesday

My premium membership is up on April 15th, and I have decided not to renew. I went through this last October, and although I need a webpage for tracking "October Novel Prep Challenge"  [13+] progress, I had decided to host the page offsite. Then I realized that I can't use the {suser:tuozzo} tag on an offsite page, so in the end, I went ahead with a six-month upgrade and hosted the progress page at WDC.

This year, I have decided that if you don't know your username, you aren't smart enough to play the game.

So on April 15th, I downgrade to upgraded (heh... that was fun), which means portfolio spring cleaning is in my future.

Reach 300 students at MTMS   by 12/31/11:
We cleared 150, which means Chris earned her raise to full-time status. Next stop, 175 and a part-time receptionist.

Develop and market summer programs by 3/31/2011:
No activity.

Pick scheduling database by 7/31/11:
No activity.

Potbelly: : Add one repertoire song per week
Not lately.

Reading: One book per week.
No activity.

Writing: Goals TBD:
(1) Blog at WDC daily. Not consistently
(2) Blog at MT.com   weekly. Not in months.

I guess I'm not sure what I've been doing the last four days. I suppose when you consider we dropped to 136 by the end of the month, then made it back up to 150 by yesterday, it justifies all the phone calls, emails, payments, enrollments, withdrawals, and related paperwork. We are also integrating four new employees.

On the weight loss front, I am up to 165 pounds, which is 20 up from my rock-bottom weight of 145...which was two summers ago. I plan to start walking in the mornings, and the 9-year-old has agreed to join me. There's nothing like a 9-year-old to hold you accountable, believe me. And here's my food plan for the day:

7:00 Fiber granola bar (1)
8:00 Coffee (1)
9:00 Banana (2) and coffee (1)
11:00 Snack (3)
1:30 Lasagna (5) and Girl Scout cookies (3)
3:30 Rolls with butter (8?)
5:00 Apple (2) and piece of cheese (1)
6:00 Crackers (4)
9:00 Girl Scout Cookies (3)

That's 3034 points. Tomorrow, I will eat 28. Now, 'scuse me while I dress out for the cruise around the 'hood.
